I wonder why Korea costs so much more for Twitch to run their service. Really interesting that they even experimented with peer-to-peer to solve it. Would like to see a write-up of why that didn't work. Honestly not even sure how that

I’ve been visiting SF quite a bit recently and it’s very much overblown in my eyes. Andrew in the video even says that he’s purposefully in the tenderloin, and explains what that is in the video. I guess here’s what’s overblown: that SF is

I’m under the impression that we’ve been experienced like 1% of the detrimental effects of climate change and real change won’t occur until mass deaths start to actually happen. Either that or we’ll reach a point where the effects start to

I completely agree. Recently I listened to a podcast where Brad Frost talked about web components being useful for design systems, as you can make a button in a web component and have that defined no matter what JS framework the dev team (o

Is your point that all handicapped people need cars to get around in bad weather? I understand not everyone lives somewhere with good weather, but I'll point you to look at cities that get a ton of weather and still manage to have good

I'm actually on board for this! If you want to live that way you should be able to. But, you should be held responsible for paying your share of the infrastructure required to support such living. As long as that is understood, I don&#

I live in an apartment-style shared home, we have a shared front lawn (not our choice), and I do own a car. I think it's great that you live without a car, a yard, and drive a moped! I'm slowly transitioning to that life myself. I

For anyone with any type of handicap, we should definitely still build our world with them in mind. Building our world more around walking, micro-mobility, and public transit would surely help those who might be in wheelchairs, scooters, et

I live on a street that used to have a streetcar line on it! Now it's just a stroad and traffic monstrosity but I sometimes daydream of hopping on the streetcar and going to meet up with friends downtown.

> If some people need to use cars for mobility or business reasons, that is fine with me. Definitely. For stuff like that, emergency services, delivery, trash collection, etc. larger vehicles on streets are totally fine and I think most

Fully agreed. And while everything you said is super important and true, one piece that really makes me pumped about this movement to ditch cars is more around quality of life. If you have to get in a car and drive to a parking lot somewher

I don't think the Jeep or BMW infotainment systems are nearly as fleshed out or complex as Rivian's, especially not Tesla's. Maybe I'm wrong!

This _is_ called FaaS generally. Serverless is kinda confusing though. Like whenever I say I work with serverless functions I always have to explain there are unmanaged servers involved

Web components are standardized by the web consortium. They are the way web browsers have agreed components should work. They have value inherently and don’t necessarily mean you can’t use react, in fact they can be used together very well

I’ve seen many claim this but I just haven’t experienced it in production and I’m not sure why. We use lambda at my work and we serve several million users a month. Lambda bill comes out to around 200$ a month, not exaggerating. API gateway

Are we talking about the same thing when we talk about suburbs? Here's the Oxford dictionary's definition: an outlying district of a city, especially a residential one. There are always outliers and exceptions to the rule but mode

No reason to feel bad! I like taking opportunities like this to respond with facts I've learned through heavy research in this area in the past few years. I also don't want _anyone_ to feel like cattle. When I talk about apartment

By condo you mean apartment right? Condos are usually just apartments you own. Apartments are not inherently bad. They allow for density which, if you went through the tour this site provides, you know allows for cheaper public services. I&

Any time I try to use waze it gives the most insane route recommendations. Would they shave 1 or 2 minutes off my commute? Sure! But will I be tasked with crossing several 5 or 6 lane stroads in doing so? You bet! It's like what do you

Kinsta pages went down because of cloudflare taking our company’s marketing site with it for a good 5-10 minutes.

Fully agreed. Funnily enough, I've been debating one of Vercel's team members on the next JS subreddit about this very thing. For those not aware, Next JS is fundamentally not openly usable outside of Vercel as a hosting platform.

In my experience, it's been a combination of the ineptitude of some and a desire of the higher-ups to justify the money spent in procuring and creating the "office". There are some that function better at work in person. I th

Good xkcd there, but Matter does seem to have industry acceptance at this point. Apple's support for it in Homekit was huge, and other companies have followed suit. Competing standards will always exist, but buy-in is really key. You c
